Looking at the shot totals. It's obvious we aren't a good team. Neither are the Kings.

Couldn't get this game on feed. Just as well from what you peeps have said. Let's not kid ourselves, we are long long way from the likes the L.A. and Anaheim.

I didn't watch the Anaheim game, but do you think it's well I'm at the top of the standings, the playoffs are coming and I don't give a shit? I just ask cuz the Flames beat them Thursday as well.

I thought WD should have put Markstrom in there at 3-0. Tt was obvious to me the game was lost, so why not give Lack a break and give Markstrom some minutes? We have a back up that badly needs to play and there was a chance to get him some playing time with no risk. Missed opportunity IMO.

I agree with getting Markstrom a few reps after it was 3 buzz. Gives the guy a few looks and also straightens out his save pctg a bit . He has to play against Columbus or Philadelphia. Why not let him try and get comfortable again ?

Lack was not the problem, just no puck luck and no constant puck pressure on LA.

The Kings fucking own us. Anybody but LA in round one.

Assuming there is a round one of course. :hmmm:

I knew this was a bad game to attend live as soon as the pizzaman served up a giant slice 15 seconds into it...

It's not that they played poorly last night, unlike the Arizona or Buffalo games. Even at their best, they are clearly pwn3d outclassed when big, heavy, deep teams like LA start playing grinding playoff-style hockey.

When Benning took over, he mentioned he wanted to build a team to compete with the "big heavy" teams out West.

I like Benning, but why hasn't he added more muscle to our team? Guys like Vey, McMillan and Bart are not going to help us beat LA, SJ or Anaheim.

Good excuse - congrats to your dad.
Yep your Dads a winner .. unlike the Canucks.. You were at the right event :)
Some of your suggested trade deals border on complete insanity :) But have enjoyed reading them
Thanks ya'll, and I love trade scenarios! wanted Brind'Amour and Rob Blake back in the day.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

LA just has our number, like how we own the Blues, it's just some sort of weird psychology, granted the Kings are recent two-time Champs so at least we can say we got beaten by the best. ha

Yeah, that's nothin'. Remember that one psycho who made like 374 trade scenarios involving Vincent Lecavalier over a 5-year span?

I can't remember his name, 'cause dude was pretty inconsequential, but yeah what a weird fuck.
